Your mission

About ClearOps
ClearOps is building the AI operating system for industrial after sales.
We connect manufacturers, dealers, service partners, and machines on one platform to predict and coordinate spare parts and service operations globally - helping keep the world’s machines moving.
Today, ClearOps supports thousands of connected dealers and millions of machines worldwide, working with leading industrial manufacturers across industries such as agriculture, construction machinery, material handling, trucking, and automotive.
Following our recent Series A funding round led by Hitachi Ventures, we are entering the next phase of global growth.

The Role
We are looking for a highly entrepreneurial Founder’s Associate to work directly with our Founder & CEO across some of the company’s most important strategic initiatives.
This is not a traditional assistant, PMO, or project management role.
You will operate at the center of company building - supporting initiatives across growth, sales, partnerships, thought leadership, strategic projects, market positioning, AI initiatives, ecosystem expansion, and special operations.

One day you may prepare a strategic customer discussion with a global OEM. The next day you may help shape a market expansion initiative, support a high-impact thought leadership campaign, structure a strategic partnership, or drive a growth initiative from idea to execution.
The role is intentionally broad, fast-moving, and high ownership.

You should enjoy ambiguity, move quickly, think independently, and be excited about solving hard problems across very different domains.

ClearOps is entering a unique phase: the foundations have been built, the market timing is right, and the company is now scaling globally.

This role offers a front-row seat to that journey.

• Drive high-impact initiatives from idea to execution
• Identifyoperational improvements and scaling opportunities

Your profile

• Highly ambitiousand entrepreneurial mindset
• Exceptional communication and structuring skills
• Strong business judgment and curiosity
• Ability tooperateindependently in ambiguous environments
• Strong execution capabilities and bias toward action
• Comfortable switching between strategic thinking and hands-on execution
• Strong interest in technology, AI, startups, and company building
• AI-native mindset and curiosity around new tooling and workflows
• High levelof ownership, reliability, and attention to detail
• Fluent in English and German

We care far more about curiosity, ambition, communication, and execution than about a “perfect” CV.
